A Dutch theme park located in Sasebo, Japan. I drive by Huis Ten Bosch on my way to work. I admire the European architecture from a far, daily. I have been wanting to go for a while. A friend and I have been talking about going together. We decided to go for one of her …
Mt. Yumihari
From Mt. Yumihari Observatory you will be able to see the whole city of Sasebo, Sasebo Port, and Kujukushima Islands (99 Islands). You may drive up to the top or hike to the top. I chose to drive. The road was curvy and fun to drive. There is plenty of parking up top and there …
Ishidake Observatory
I went on an adventure to Ishidake Observatory. It gives a different view of Kujukushima Islands (99 islands). Ishidake Observatory is known as where part of the beginning of “The Last Samurai” was filmed. The road leading to Ishidake Observatory is on the small side, so I drove carefully in case anyone was driving down …
Tenkaiho Park

Pokemon, Mister Donut, AEON
Monday, September 14th Today I had to go get fingerprint cards from Darby Elementary and fill out more paperwork. Since I had to go to Darby, which is at Hairo, I went to the NEX at Hairo. Totally disappointed at there selection. Main Base NEX has more household goods and clothes. I went by AEON …
Finding Normal
Monday, September 7th I woke up at 1:30 a.m. to howling of the wind against the window and the slight opening and closing of the front door. At least Calcifer was sleeping in the bed with me. I couldn’t go back to sleep so I decided to watch Netflix. I watched a couple more episodes …
